Re: help with seting up a dumb terminal to Linux please

[Jude Dashiell <dashiell@clark.net>]

First, there is one and only one dumb terminal situation.
Terminals can be defined as dumb and all the remote will send them is text
spaces, and carriage returns.
Telix usually doesn't run under a dumb  terminal situation in any event.
I'm a registered user of the program and gave up on it several years ago
for
good cause.
The vt emulations and ansi and avatar emulations are not dumb terminal
emulations.  That's because escape codes are passed over the cable for
such things
as cursor control; key redefinition, and in some cases text insertion but
it takes
an emulation better than ansi under dos 6.22 to do that effectively.
In unix, dumb is a valid terminal definition and very specific as are
vt102;
vt100, vt52 vt220 ETC.
